I'm no proponent of gun control ... but this argument that access to guns is required to prevent the tyranny of gov't is soooooo 19th century.
You'd need free access to tanks, fighter jets, bunker bombs and more if you think an armed revolt is something that needs to be achievable and therefore requires access to guns.
And just to play devil's advocate here - outside of a symbolic measure of "freedom to guns", why do we really need access assault weapons? Is it impossible to hunt without assault weapons? Is it impossible to protect your home without assault weapons? Maybe we should all have access to RPGs?
